Can you really tell what part of the baby's poking you? or tell the difference between a punch and kick? Im only 17w so im not feeling any big,just wondering.

I'm 29 weeks and 4 days ... I have felt the baby since about 20 weeks.. for the most part I don't know for a fact what she is doing in there ... Last time I went to the doctor she was head down and I felt strong kicks high in my stomach ... If you feel my belly its hard ... But I'm unsure of what I'm feeling ... It is really fun to play around and feel on your stomach though! It just feels so amazing to me that I have a little girl growing inside me. I'm a FTM and it still hasn't hit me that I'm pregnant and going to have a baby even though her room is ready. It's am amazing feeling! You should start feeling something in the next few weeks! I'm not sure about other people but I'm not sure what I'm feeling half the time ... Just kicks punches lots of movement
